You okay? I’m talking about behavior, and you’re making it about people’s abilities. If you want people to engage in critical analysis, don’t start by saying they’re unable to do it.

Fox news calling the US an empire is not new. How old do you all think the moniker “Empire State” is? It’s wild how it’s in our language but we just don’t think about it.
Could someone explain the joke to me? I’m not very smart.

I’m sure if you keep calling those who do as LARPers, it will surely encourage such dialogue.
If attacking civilians is the mark of psychopathology then the US does a good job of arming such nations. What the Houthis are doing is not happening in a vacuum. They have a history of resisting regimes propped up by the US. Does that make them saints? No. But we’re not any better.
And we still have nuclear Armageddon to worry about, it just got buried under the pile of things to worry about.
Renewables won’t stop the oil companies from selling their product. But I’m optimistic for different reasons; ol Zuck is making sure he’s the tastiest billionaire on the menu with his wagyu diet.
Don’t worry, we’re banning abortion so you don’t have to be selfish to have kids.
Exec laughs in accountability and fires people
“because I feel like it” is a good enough reason to give a stranger.
For most eras, how hard it was to make a good sandwich. And I’m not just talking about the past.
Yeah, it reads like “our mistake is that there is always room for improvement”
Since when does professionalism include lying about the person’s performance metrics as the reason for the layoff? She professionally asked for receipts, they had none. These people seems to think gaslighting is part of being professional.
Maybe I would receive your arguments with more grace if it wasn’t laced with personal judgements.
If we have so little influence over Israel than that undermines your argument that we’re getting “power coupons” in return. I’m not even debating you on the morality of Kissinger, I’m meeting you where you stand: if we don’t exercise our influence then we are going to lose it (and Kissinger agrees with me on that at least)
The argument is that we’re not using our strongest influence by virtue of not threatening to withhold arms (even though it would be in US interest to do so to preserve influence in the region). I am not arguing that the US controls Israel like some vassal state.
If the US has no influence over Israel in regards to this conflict than that sounds like a critical policy failure and a huge geopolitical risk.
Edit: I’m curious what potential Israel allies you speak of that are not aligned with the US? Our own allies are distancing themselves from this clusterfuck.
If you don’t see how Israel is undermining America’s soft power then idk what to say.
If dust is the problem then you start at the top and work your way down. Ie Clean ceiling fans, Dust, then wipe surfaces then vacuum.
